Two new chitosan derivatives, polyamine grafted chitosan copolymers have been synthesized for corrosion protection of carbon steel in acidic medium. First, methyl acrylate graft chitosan copolymer (CS-MAA) was prepared by the reaction of chitosan (CS) and methyl acrylate (MAA) via the Michael addition reaction. Then, CS-MAA was reacted with ethylene diamine (EN) and triethylene tetramine (TN) respectively to synthesize ethylene diamine grafted chitosan copolymer (CS-MAA-EN) and triethylene tetramine grafted chitosan copolymer (CS-MAA-TN), and the structures were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). At last, the corrosion inhibition activities on Q235 carbon steel were investigated by using gravimetric measurements, metallographic microscope, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The compounds CS-MAA-EN and CS-MAA-TN show an appreciable corrosion inhibition property against corrosion of Q235 carbon steel in 5% HCl solution at $25^{\circ}C$. It has been observed that CS-MAA-EN shows greater corrosion inhibition efficiency than CS-MAA-TN. The inhibition efficiency of CS-MAA-EN was close to 90% when the mass fraction concentration was 0.2%~0.3%; the inhibition efficiency of CS-MAA-TN was close to 85% when the mass fraction concentration was 0.02%. The present work provided very promising results in the preparation of green corrosion inhibitors.

The effect of nitrogen on the electrochemical corrosion and nanomechanical behaviors of martensitic stainless steel was examined using potentiodynamic polarization and nanoindentation test methods. The results indicate that partial replacement of carbon with nitrogen effectively improved the passivation and pitting corrosion resistance of conventional high-carbon and high- chromium martensitic steels. Post-test observation of the samples after a potentiodynamic test revealed a severe pitting attacks in conventional martensitic steel compared with nitrogen- containing martensitic stainless steel. This was shown to be due to (i) microstructural refinement results in retaining a high-chromium content in the matrix, and (ii) the presence of reversed austenite formed during the tempering process. Since nitrogen addition also resulted in the formation of a $Cr_2N$ phase as a process of secondary hardening, the hardness of the nitrogen- containing steel is slightly higher than the conventional martensitic stainless steel under tempered conditions, even though the carbon content is lowered. The added nitrogen also improved the wear resistance of the steel as the critical load (Lc2) is less, along with a lower scratch friction coefficient (SFC) when compared to conventional martensitic stainless steel such as AISI 440C.

The intermediate operating temperature of solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs) have achieved considerable importance in the area of power fabrication. This is because to improve materials compatibility, their long-term stability and cost saving potential. However, to conserve rational cell performance at reduced-temperature regime, cathode performance should be obtained without negotiating the internal resistance and the electrode kinetics of the cell. Recently, double perovskite structure cathodes have been studied with great attention as a potential material for IT-SOFCs. In this study, double-perovskite structured cathodes of $GdBaCoCuO_{5+\delta}$, $GdBaCo_{2/3}Cu_{2/3}Fe_{2/3}O_{5+\delta}$ compositions and $(1-x)GdBaCo_2O_{5+\delta}+xCe_{0.9}Gd_{0.1}O_{1.95}$ (x = 10, 20, 30 and 40 wt.%) composites were evaluated as the cathode for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells(IT-SOFCs). Electrical conductivity of the cathodes were measured by DC 4-probe method, and the thermal expansion coefficient of each sample was measured up to $900^{\circ}C$ by a dilatometer study. Area specific resistances(ASR) of the $GdBaCo_{2/3}Cu_{2/3}Fe_{2/3}O_{5+\delta}$ cathode and 70 wt.% $GdBaCo_2O5+\delta$ + 30wt.% Ce0.9Gd0.1O1.95 composite cathode on CGO electrolyte substrate were analyzed using AC 3-probe impedance study. The obtained results demonstrate that double perovskite-based compositions are promising cathode materials for IT-SOFCs.

이트리아 안정화 지르코니아(yttria stabilized zirconia, YSZ)를 전해질로 선정하여 소결조건에 따른 열적 안정성과 전기적인 특성을 분석하였다. SEM사진으로 소결온도가 증가할수록 입자가 커지므로 상대적으로 기공은 줄어드는 것을 보였고 입자크기에 따른 영향을 확인하였다. 전기적 특성을 알아보고자 2단자법(2-probe method)으로 $800\~1000^{\circ}C$의 오도에서 교류 임피던스 측정을 통하여 전해질 내의 저항과 전기전도도 측정으로 입자 내부 저항 및 전기적 성능을 평가하였다. 소결온도가 $1400^{\circ}C$일 때 건식법과 습식법에서 밀도는 각각 6.13, 6.25 $g/cm^3$이며, 상대밀도는 각각 98, 99$\%$였다. 소결온도가 올라갈수록 저항은 낮아지고, 전도도는 커지는 것을 확인할 수 있으며, 건식 및 습식법으로 제작한 전해질의 전기전도도는 $10000^{\circ}C$에서 각각 $8.8\times10^{-2},\;11\times10^{-2}$ S/cm이었다.

Phospho-olivine $LiFePO_4$ cathode materials were prepared by hydrothermal reaction. Carbon black was added to enhance the electrical conductivity' of $LiFePO_4$. The structural and morphological performance of $LiFePO_4$ and $LiFePO_4$-C powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). $LiFePO_4$/Li and $LiFePO_4-C$/Li cells were characterized electrochemically by cyclic voltammogram (CV), charge/discharge experiments and ac impedance spectroscopy. The results showed that the discharge capacity of $LiFePO_4$/Li cell was 147 mAh/g at the first cycle and 118 mAh/g after 30 cycles, respectively. The discharge capacity of $LiFePO_4-C$/Li cell with 5wt% carbon black was the largest among $LiFePO_4-C$/Li cells, 133 mAh/g at the first cycle and 128 mAh/g after 30 cycles, respectively. It was demonstrated that cycling performance of $LiFePO_4-C$/Li cell with 5wt% carbon black was better than that of $LiFePO_4$/Li cell.

The effects of blasting and acidic treatment on the corrosion characteristics of dental implant fabricated with Cp-Ti and Ti-6Al-4V alloy have been researched by using electrochemical methods. The fabricated implants were cleaned and sandblasted by $Al_2O_3$ powder and then acidic treatment was carried out in nitric acid solution. The surface morphology were observed using scanning electron microscope. The corrosion behaviors were investigated using potentiosat and EIS in 0.9% NaCl solution at $36.5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. The potentio-dynamic test in 0.9% NaCl indicated that the corrosion potential of blasting and acidic treated implant was lower than that of non treated implant, but current density was higher than that of non treated implant. From the cyclic potentiodynamic test results of Ti implant, the passivation current density of blasting and acidic treated implant slightly higher than that of non treated implant. From A.C. impedance test results in 0.9% NaCl solution, polarization resistance($R_p$) value of blasting and acidic treated implant was lower than that of non treated implant. In case of blasting and acidic treated implant surface, the pits were observed in valley and crest of implant surface.

Two sorts of electrode composed of Sulpur/CNT/PVDF and Silver/CNT/PVDF were prepared by in situ chemical method and their electrochemical performance were evaluated by using cyclic voltammetry, impedance measurement and constant-current charge/discharge cycling technique. Also, composite electrodes were characterized by FE-SEM and BET. Raw materials such as CNT/Silver and CNT/Sulfur were mixed in ethanol, dried. These mixed materials were heated at 900 and $320^{\circ}C$ for 2hr, respectively in order to enhance contact among CNT electrodes. Electric double layer capacitor cells were fabricated using these mixed powder with polymer of PVDF. For the charging and discharging characteristics measured at scan rate of 1 mA/s, Supercapacitor of Sulphur-CNT-PVDF electrode showed a better performance than that of Ag-CNT-PVDF, which seems to be related with lower contact resistance of Sulphur-CNT-PVDF electrode.

활성탄소를 양쪽 전극에 사용하는 전기이중층 커패시터는 고출력 특성과 반영구적인 cycle 수명인 장점을 가지고 있는 반면, 단위 중랑 또는 부피 당 용량이 작아 메모리 백업용 보조전원으로서의 활용에 그치고 있다. 이를 보완하기 위하여 최근에는 앙쪽의 전극에 충방전 메카니즘을 달리하는 비대칭 전극 설계기술을 기반으로 하는 하이브리드 커패시터가 개발되었고, 에너지밀도로서는 유기계 전해액에서 약 15-20 Wh/kg를 가지는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 본 연구메서는 양극의 활성탄소에 비용량이 상대적으로 큰 LiCo02 분말을 혼합한 하이브리드 전극의 제조 및 전기화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 이때 $LiCoO_2$ 분말의 혼합 종량비의 영향에 의한 전극 부피 당 용량(mAh/cc)의 변화와 $LiCoO_2$ 분말의 입자 크기에 의한 하이브리드 전극의 출력 특성을 조사하였다. $LiCoO_2$ 분말은 불밀을 이용하여 입자크기를 조절하였고, 각각의 입자크기를 가지는 LiCoO2 분말을 활성탄소와 함께 혼합하여 혼합 활물질 : Carbon black : PTFE의 중량비가 90 : 5 : 5가 되도록 sheet 전극을 제조하였다. 제조한 전극을 양극에, Li foil을 음극에, 전해액을 LiPF6 in EC DMC를 사용하여 코인셀을 제조하고 전기화학적 특성은 MACCOR 충방전기를, AC 저항은 AC impedance를 각각 사용하여 평가하였다. 활성탄소에 $LiCoO_2$ 분말의 첨가 중량비가 증가할수록 전극 부피 당 용량은 증가하였으나, 원료 상태의 $LiCoO_2$ 분말의 첨가에서는 코인셀의 전극 저항은 첨가 중량에 따라 단순 증가하였다. 그러나 미세 $LiCoO_2$ 분말을 첨가할 경우, 20%의 첨가에서 전극 저항은 활성탄소 만을 사용한 전극과 동등한 전극저항을 나타내고 충방전 cycle 특성도 개선되는 것을 확인하였다.

최근 스마트 모바일 기기에서의 고성능화 추세는 더 많은 소비 전력을 요구하게 되어 배터리 사용 시간의 감소로 이어지고 있다. 이에 배터리 관리의 중요성과 그 연구에 필요한 정확한 배터리 모델링 방법이 중요해지고 있다. 배터리 모델은 크게 수학적 모델, 전기화학적 모델, 전기적 모델로 구분된다. 그중 전기적 모델에서 전기적 소자를 사용한 테브닌 등가회로와 SOC의 비선형 함수 모델을 사용하는 것이 일반적이나, 온도나 사용연한에 따른 특성 변화, 전기적 소자로 표현할 수 없는 비정형적 저항성분 등의 존재로 OCV 결과 출력의 정확성에 한계가 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 모델의 정확성을 향상시키기 위하여 배터리의 SOC 특성을 나타내는 수학적 함수 모델을 개선하고 온도, 수명, 그리고 전기적 특성의 비선형성을 포함하는 새로운 배터리 모델을 제안한다. 또한 제안한 모델을 구현한 시뮬레이터를 사용하여 정적 전류 상태와 동적 전류 상태에서의 배터리의 방전 결과를 예측한 결과, 기존 방법 대비 실측값과의 MSE가 개선된 결과를 보였다.

Active reaction sites and electrochemical O2 reduction kinetics on La_{1-x}Sr_xMnO_{3+{\delta}} (x=0.1-0.4)/YSZ (yttria-stabilized zirconia) electrodes are investigated in the temperature range of 700-900 ℃ at $Po_2=10^{-3}$-0.21 atm. Results of the steady-state polarization measurements, which are formulated into the Butler-Volmer formalism to extract transfer coefficient values, lead us to conclude that the two-electron charge transfer step to atomically adsorbed oxygen is rate-limiting. The same conclusion is drawn from the $Po_2$-dependent ac impedance measurements, where the exponent m in the relationship of $I_o$ (exchange current density) ∝ $P_{o_{2}}^m$ is analyzed. Chemical analysis is performed on the quenched Mn perovskites to estimate their oxygen stoichiometry factors (δ) at the operating temperature (700-900 ℃). Here, the observed δ turns out to become smaller as both the Sr-doping contents (x) and the measured temperature increase. A comparison between the 8 values and cathodic activity of Mn perovskites reveals that the cathodic transfer coefficients $({\alpha}_c)$ for oxygen reduction reaction are inversely proportional to δ whereas the anodic ones $({\alpha}_a)$ show the opposite trend, reflecting that the surface oxygen vacancies on Mn perovskites actively participate in the $O_2$ reduction reaction. Among the samples of x= 0.1-0.4, the manganite with x=0.4 exhibits the smallest 8 value (even negative), and consistently this electrode shows the highest ${\alpha}_c$ and the best cathodic activity for the oxygen reduction reaction.
